There will be another option for getting to Loveland and A-Basin in 2019-20 from the Denver area.  The CDOT regional Bustang bus routes will be enhanced by Snowtang routes to at least those two ski areas, perhaps Copper too.  Could be more by the time the snow flies.  Only weekends and holiday periods.  Cost is $25 round trip.  Presumably with schedules that allow a full day on the snow.  Buses will start at Union Station in Denver and stop at the RTD Federal Center Station in Lakewood before heading into the mountains.

I gather a test of a commuter ski bus was done one weekend in 2017.  The ski areas are going to help pay for the snowsports-oriented winter service mid-Dec 2019 thru mid-April 2020.

Bustang, a four-year-old CDOT program that uses money from vehicle registration fees to subsidize what fare revenue doesn’t cover, already runs regional buses from Denver to Fort Collins, Colorado Springs, Vail, Glenwood Springs and Grand Junction.
